When I was teaching i got tons of hugs every day. Now that I'm retired, I didn't know how much those hugs helped my mental health. Hug someone every chance you get.

[ashleyvirts]

Hello! As someone who has been a caregiver to a spouse with a lot of unknowns and major health issues- I appreciate what you said about how it changes you. I remember being behind the ambulance one morning, following my husband, while everyone else around me was going about their normal day. It is such an isolating feeling. I know that we are not the same from what we have gone through, but I appreciate that I am not the same in how I love, show empathy, and care for those around me. I think God allows us to see things most people miss and allows us to speak love and life in those hurting. The best description I have ever heard about empathy comes from Brene Brown on Empathy. If you search that, it is about a 3 min video and so worth the 3 mins. Hugs to you and prayers for your sweet family! ❤

Your piano playing was moving! I can hear your heart being poured into it:
I played the piano for many hours after my older sister passed away at 17, it was my only safe place for a long time!

Others are blessed by helping us just as we are blessed by helping them. Don't deny them their blessing.

How I love “l’ll Fly Away.” My granddaughter sang it, a capella, at my daughter’s funeral six years ago. It brings tears to my eyes every time I hear it, but it comforts & assures me that my daughter is in heaven. And I know that I will be with her for eternity.
Thank you.

[LenaVolkov]

I love instrumental hymns, I'd love it if you included your piano playing in your videos more often!
Praying for your son and family!
Btw, you outfit today was so pretty!

[nancyweaver]

Something to remember is if you don't graciously accept kind gestures and offers to help, you are robbing someone of being a blessing to you. And that might be the thing that would have made their day better. That thought has helped me as I am used to being the one helping and it was hard for me to acknowledge that I could use help.

[jodystancliff]

I hear ya about letting friends help. I'm going through breast cancer treatment. I've been feeling pretty good so I've been saying no to offers for help. But I recently let a friend bring dinner over. It felt so good to be pampered and taken care of. Hugs to you and prayers for Fletcher.

[Jennifer_Cruz]

We prayed for Fletcher on Monday night. ☺️🙏 It's so funny that you talked about being a hugger. I literally talked about that the other day. I'm definitely a hugger. It changes people when you hug them. 🫂Another great video, Megan. Blessings to you and your family 💕

[traciecarlson]

The number one thing I learned from my grandmother is when someone wants to give you a gift, you take it. I consider offers for help in the gift category. I try to say yes as much as I can because it blesses other people.

[amandadavispomeroy]

A friend, her mom, & her daughter cleaned our house while I was in the hospital for a mastectomy. It was such a huge blessing to come home to heal in a clean house. It was such a generous, loving thing.

And hugs are my favorite. We give them freely & as often as is possible. 💜

[hannahhensley]

I needed this! I’ve inwardly (and outwardly) had so much pride in having almost zero childcare (military family). The last 3 weeks I’ve had to rely on my friend so much for childcare (a few hours a week, more than ever before ha) and it’s an incredibly uncomfortable feeling and lesson in humility.

[charmin]

“Receiving” can be hard, it is also the flip side of when we are the givers.

[marthakaye]

Megan, i grew up Amish and completely without hugs. This past May 20th (literally on Pentecost Day we discovered later) when i finally allowed my (also ex-amish) youth pastor give me my first hug ever, i surrendered my life to Jesus, in our embrace! It’s crazy, because we’d been connecting since last September, and then after the length of almost an entire pregnancy i was Born Again in, now my “dad’s” arms - and a mother can’t even catch her own baby (very well) but the dad can, how crazy! Since then i find hugs very powerful as well!
Hugs to you!

Seeing a snippet of your children playing church with their congregation of stuffies touched my heart so deeply and it was so lovely to see you play the piano; I’m sure it was therapy for you and it also ministered to your family. I grew up in the home of a piano player and hearing Dad play every night after supper is my favourite childhood memory, bar none. I’m so pleased for you that you have a strong support network and that you’re accepting their loving help. Their ministry blesses you and it blesses them to be used like that! Hugs and prayers from Canada! 🇨🇦

[dawndillon]

Love beef and cheddar . Never thought to make them in the air fryer. Definitely going to try it 😊

[nannetteashenk]

Please know that I am praying for your family. My sister and her family have gone through something identical to yours. Community/family is everything during this time! I’m so grateful you have that!

On a side note, I absolutely LOVE when you play the piano! I could listen for hours! It brings back sweet memories of my papa playing when I was a little girl. ❤

[caitlinthomas]

You can always find me at the piano when I am stressed too. It's a great way to release emotions and tension.

[jilliebeanbrownie]

1 so many prayers to you and your family and your little one. 2 oh my the way you described how home making as mundane tasks that they are but will make a huge difference in your mind, heart and home 💛

[hasmith]

Lovely video Megan! I think it is so important to focus on positive things and planning is a great way to do that even if those plans don’t always work out. One thing I have learnt dealing with my son’s health conditions is that it is still possible to live well even with hard things to deal with and less than perfect conditions. Thanks for putting out encouraging material to cheer us all up! 🤗 ps So sorry to hear about Rio by the way, so sad. I hope you are all doing ok 🙏 I keep praying for Fletcher. I hope he is doing well on his current medication 💙
